under_o the_o law_n the_o efficacy_n of_o the_o high-priest_n entrance_n into_o the_o holy_a of_o holies_n do_v depend_v upon_o the_o blood_n which_o he_o carry_v in_o thither_o which_o be_v the_o

as_o it_o respect_v our_o expiation_n must_v have_v a_o respect_n to_o that_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n antecedent_n to_o it_o and_o i_o wonder_v our_o adversary_n do_v so_o

and_o therefore_o there_o can_v be_v no_o reason_n to_o suppose_v that_o the_o oblation_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v consequent_a to_o his_o death_n for_o that_o destroy_v the_o correspondency_n

do_v proper_o belong_v to_o that_o and_o only_o very_o remote_o to_o the_o blood_n e_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n what_o imaginable_a necessity_n be_v there_o that_o christ_n must_v shed_v his_o blood_n in_o order_n to_o the_o expiation_n of_o our_o sin_n if_o all_o that_o bloâ—d_v of_o the_o legal_a sacrifice_n do_v signify_v no_o more_o than_o a_o bare_a condition_n of_o pardon_n though_o a_o

on_o the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n and_o do_v not_o this_o speak_v the_o great_a repugnancy_n to_o the_o kindness_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o the_o gospel_n that_o he_o will_v not_o dispense_v

this_o supposition_n that_o the_o blood_n of_o sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n have_v no_o proper_a influence_n upon_o expiation_n the_o apostle_n b_o discourse_n proceed_v upon_o weak_a and_o

therefore_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v so_o now_o although_o in_o itself_o it_o have_v no_o proper_a efficacy_n for_o that_o end_n but_o the_o apostle_n word_n and_o way_n of_o

as_o little_a reason_n to_o attribute_v the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n to_o his_o entrance_n consider_v as_o distinct_a from_o the_o other_o for_o the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n in_o heaven_n e_o be_v by_o crellius_n himself_o confess_v to_o be_v by_o the_o exercise_n of_o christ_n power_n and_o this_o be_v only_o the_o mean_n to_o that_o power_n how_o can_v christ_n expiate_v sin_n by_o that_o

to_o the_o entrance_n of_o christ_n into_o heaven_n as_o distinct_a from_o his_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n thus_o much_o may_v suffice_v to_o prove_v that_o those_o effect_n of_o a_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n which_o do_v respect_v the_o sin_n commit_v do_v proper_o agree_v to_o the_o death_n of_o christ._n i_o now_o come_v to_o that_o which_o respect_v the_o person_n consider_v as_o death_n obnoxious_a to_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o so_o the_o effect_n of_o a_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n be_v atonement_n and_o reconciliation_n by_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n i_o mean_v the_o reason_n which_o god_n have_v from_o the_o holiness_n and_o justice_n of_o his_o nature_n to_o punish_v sin_n b_o in_o those_o who_o commit_v it_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o atonement_n and_o reconciliation_n i_o mean_v that_o in_o consideration_n of_o which_o god_n be_v willing_a to_o release_v the_o sinner_n from_o the_o obligation_n to_o punishment_n he_o lie_v

to_o the_o death_n and_o blood_n d_o of_o christ_n in_o order_n to_o the_o expiation_n of_o sin_n we_o do_v not_o deny_v that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n may_v be_v call_v a_o condition_n as_o the_o

but_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o connexion_n between_o sin_n and_o punishment_n as_o to_o the_o end_n of_o government_n that_o unless_o the_o honour_n and_o majesty_n of_o god_n as_o to_o his_o

among_o man_n i_o answer_v that_o we_o do_v not_o pretend_v in_o all_o thing_n to_o parallel_v the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n for_o we_o with_o any_o suffering_n of_o man_n for_o one_o another_o

whether_o they_o be_v guilty_a or_o no_o and_o if_o this_o may_v be_v just_a in_o man_n why_o not_o in_o god_n if_o any_o say_v that_o the_o parent_n be_v only_o punish_v in_o the_o child_n he_o speak_v that_o which_o be_v contradictory_n to_o the_o common_a sense_n of_o mankind_n for_o punishment_n do_v suppose_v sense_n or_o feel_n of_o it_o and_o in_o this_o b_o case_n the_o parent_n be_v

though_o all_o thing_n be_v so_o like_v it_o that_o no_o person_n can_v imagine_v himself_o in_o that_o condition_n but_o will_v think_v himself_o punish_v and_o severe_o too_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o these_o be_v calamity_n indeed_o but_o they_o be_v no_o proper_a punishment_n it_o may_v easy_o be_v show_v that_o distinction_n will_v not_o hold_v here_o because_o these_o punishment_n be_v

this_o be_v design_v by_o the_o law_n as_o a_o punishment_n to_o the_o parent_n and_o as_o to_o the_o child_n it_o be_v only_o a_o necessary_a consequent_a d_o of_o their_o punishment_n for_o

that_o from_o crellius_n his_o own_o concession_n we_o have_v prove_v that_o our_o sin_n may_v very_o proper_o be_v say_v to_o be_v punish_v in_o christ_n although_o he_o will_v not_o say_v that_o

to_o suppose_v it_o and_o repugnant_a to_o the_o rectitude_n of_o god_n nature_n to_o do_v it_o and_o so_o we_o come_v to_o consider_v the_o mighty_a argument_n that_o be_v propound_v insist_v on_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o which_o may_v be_v reduce_v to_o these_o three_o viz._n 1._o that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o punishment_n but_o what_o be_v deserve_v but_o no_o man_n can_v deserve_v that_o another_o shall_v be_v punish_v 2._o that_o punishment_n flow_v from_o revenge_n but_o there_o can_v be_v no_o revenge_n where_o there_o have_v be_v no_o fault_n 3._o that_o
upon_o it_o now_o these_o three_o i_o shall_v make_v appear_v to_o agree_v full_o to_o the_o death_n of_o e_o christ_n for_o we_o 1._o a_o substitution_n in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o offender_n that_o we_o be_v to_o prove_v be_v design_v in_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n and_o that_o christ_n in_o his_o death_n for_o we_o be_v substitute_v in_o our_o place_n 1._o that_o in_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n under_o the_o law_n there_o be_v a_o a_o substitution_n of_o they_o in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o offender_n this_o our_o adversary_n be_v not_o willing_a to_o

that_o the_o mean_n of_o expiation_n lay_v in_o the_o shed_n of_o blood_n which_o show_v that_o the_o very_a mactation_n of_o the_o beast_n to_o be_v sacrifice_v be_v design_v in_o order_n to_o the_o

he_o shall_v ever_o admit_v of_o any_o term_n of_o reconciliation_n with_o they_o which_o be_v the_o only_a thing_n inconsistent_a with_o the_o greatness_n of_o god_n love_n in_o send_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n but_o we_o adore_v and_o magnify_v the_o infiniteness_n and_o unexpressible_a greatness_n of_o his_o love_n that_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o contempt_n of_o the_o former_a

that_o be_v not_o at_o all_o inconsistent_a with_o christ_n die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o in_o pursuance_n of_o that_o decree_n if_o they_o mean_v he_o be_v actual_o reconcile_v then_o there_o be_v no_o need_n for_o christ_n to_o die_v to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o but_o withal_o actual_a reconciliation_n imply_v pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o if_o sin_n be_v actual_o pardon_v

love_n of_o god_n than_o it_o can_v imply_v no_o more_o but_o that_o god_n be_v willing_a to_o be_v reconcile_v if_o therefore_o the_o e_o not_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v consistent_a with_o that_o love_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o send_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n then_o notwithstanding_o that_o he_o be_v yet_o capable_a of_o be_v reconcile_v by_o his_o death_n so_o that_o our_o

of_o satisfaction_n i_o answer_v either_o god_n grace_n be_v so_o free_a as_o to_o exclude_v all_o condition_n or_o not_o if_o it_o be_v so_o free_a as_o to_o exclude_v all_o condition_n than_o the_o

to_o obtain_v pardon_n of_o sin_n commit_v against_o god_n but_o that_o as_o often_o as_o they_o consider_v the_o bitter_a suffering_n of_o christ_n d_o in_o order_n to_o the_o obtain_v the_o
